I Beat severe Covid-19 AMA

Thankfully I've never had the symptoms, and I feel very lucky to have gotten away with it. I car share with 3 other people to get to work. In the front sits the driver, with another guy in the passenger  seat. I sit in the back, with this girl. 

Recently, the girl that sits next to me in the back got COVID-19. Couple of days later, the guy that sits in the front passenger seat also comes down with it. Because I shared a small condensed space with 2 people who tested positive for it, I rang 119 (UK) and they asked me a bunch of questions. As I had no symptoms myself, but had been in contact with 2 people who tested positive, I had no option but to isolate for 2 weeks. I had plenty of holidays to use at work so I put those in rather than stand sick money. So I got 2 weeks off, and only needed to ring 119 again if I started feeling any symptoms, which I didn't.

And now I'm back at work as normal.

So it seems that I am either very lucky and don't get affected by this virus, or I got really really lucky by not getting it even though I possibly could. I'm pretty careful with my face mask and sanitizer, so maybe that helped.

To the rest of you, I wish you nothing but good luck and hope you manage to stay safe.

Peace.

I am in middle age. Got it for three weeks.  No fever so I didn't think I had it.  I have had prior heart  issues so I thought it was a flare-up.  I had very high blood pressure, which has since come down.  Usually when I have a flare-up, it doesn't just start and go away.  I usually end up in the hospital when it's that bad and have to get IV and heart shocked to put it back.  But after 3 weeks or so, started to feel better. I had aches, pains (not the chronic type I always have, but on top of that), fatigue so bad I could not get out of bed.  Since no fever, they told me not to come unless breathing was bad.  I had to sleep on one side and my body would wake myself up not being able to breathe and I'd turn over.  I've had 2 negative tests now so I am over it and afterwards felt strangely great and energetic, but that could be psychological.  I feel so sorry for people even older than myself who suffer alone and have no one to help them.  Virtual hugs to all of you.  I miss the real hugs so much.  By the way, I have found if you have a business, no one understands how long this can go on.  In my experience, if I couldn't get my work done, people were unsympathetic and downright mean while I laid in bed and hoped it would not get worse and I would wind up in the hospital alone and die alone.   Sick and tired with the fakeness that government and anyone other than first responders care about this.   In these months, my dreams  for future have turned to desolation and nightmares.  I have had nightmares and heightened anxiety for months.  I am sure I'm not the only one and that's what keeps me going.  Good luck to all of you.  Try not to take chances.  It's not worth it.  

 
@Handsley I’m so sorry to hear about this. Although I haven’t had it that know of as I had some illnesses here and there as of late, I can empathize with you and hate that you feel/felt like that as it sounds awful. I’m glad that you’re feeling better. My brother in law has it and he is my age, mid 30s, and it’s pretty bad. My wife and I take full precautions daily, and yet I fear  it deeply and have much anxiety and worry. So yes, I hope you can take some solace that you’re not the only one. I cannot understand others who not only don’t care enough to protect themselves, but for others to take precautions. It’s no joke.  Over 3,000 people in the USA died today from COVID-19.

I hope you continue healing. Not just physically, but emotionally and mentally as well. Good luck and nothing but well wishes and positivity to you.

  7. CalFresh @ CalFresh: Thanks everyone. My family and I are safe ATM. @mellowella thank you, but they cleaned me out. the shelves are empty but I'm hoping to call in some favors to restock ASAP. @xenxra I will reach out to set up a secure comms channel for us. Thanks again all. Yesterday was tough, but the support I've received from those I can share is with has been a Godsend.
  8. tiquanunderwood @ tiquanunderwood: Mad love to you and your family @CalFresh
  9. xenxra @ xenxra: @CalFresh if you are able to DM me (in a secure manner) the transactions associated with your btc theft, i can look into that part for you at least. i;m still 99% certain if the fbi didn't discard my leads they could have gotten some of my coins back and considering you had your coins stolen within the us, you have a much better chance of recovery than me. unless they went through mixers i could probably trace them myself.
  10. O @ Outsider9173: @CalFresh Haven't been here long but I want to wish you a fast recovery
  11. crimp @ crimp: neck spine surgery 8 ribs broke and scalp split onen about 6 inches

  13. CnC5 @ CnC5: @CalFresh if theres anything i can do brother lmk!
  14. M @ Mokachin0: @CalFresh email me I may be able to assist
  15. mellowella @ mellowella: I will always remember what you did for me the very first time I donated. I have been waiting to pay that kindness forward.
  16. mellowella @ mellowella: @CalFresh are you and your family safe? You’ve helped me in a pinch and were more than generous, and I’m sure you’ve helped others. How can we help you? Does it help at all if we completely buy out what’s left? Maybe that gives time and funds to restock and rebuild? I don’t want to break any rules here, but please let us know if we can do anything. All on your time of course.
  17. CalFresh @ CalFresh: thanks guys. I'm pulling together what I have left and leaning on the kindness of folks who support me to restock my shelves so that I can keep the lights on. Having my savings drained and my security vanish in an instant is paralyzing and the repercussions will only be realized in the coming days and weeks. for now I'm just trying to stay focused on the immediate priorities for ensuring this doesn't. cause cataclysmic failure to the life I've built for my children and I.
  18. H @ hotdog45: @CalFresh hey man if I can do anything, anything at all to help you get back on your feet let me know. Truly my heart goes out to you. I sent you an email also
  19. G @ gfunkster: @CalFresh im really sorry to hear that. But remember karma is real my man. They just fd their karma for a long time.
  20. Telp @ Telp: @CalFresh Thats so fucked man. Im glad you’re safe! And wishing you the best. What a bunch of scumbags.
